I can finally bend my knee again, thank Shiva. Still hurts like hell, but it's something. I'll consider it an early birthday present.

What wonderful news! It must be a great relief to be able to move more freely now. Don't overstress it, though...

When is your birthday? I didn't realize it was coming up soon!

[identity profile] citydragon.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Trust me, I have no plans to try and set myself back right now.

Next week - the 9th. Always sort of sneaks up.

[identity profile] librariansheart.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 10:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. I think the others might consider hurting you for that.

Ah! That is soon! How were you planning to celebrate?

[identity profile] citydragon.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
As completely counter-productive as it would be, you're probably right.

Probably just a nice dinner somewhere - I'm too old to make a big affair of birthdays any more.

/was totally joking

[identity profile] librariansheart.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 10:54 pm (UTC)(link)
... I am? They would?

[identity profile] librariansheart.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 10:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, maybe not a big affair, but a small one? Maybe? Mostly so other people can celebrate?

[identity profile] citydragon.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 11:00 pm (UTC)(link)
No harm, I suppose - though I don't really see the point.

[identity profile] librariansheart.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 11:04 pm (UTC)(link)
It's a chance to get together and play games, and talk and generally enjoy one another's company! And, of course, an opportunity to show you that we care about you by giving you gifts.

[identity profile] citydragon.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 11:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, well...if you really want to.

[identity profile] librariansheart.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 11:14 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I'd get you a gift anyway, regardless. If it's not too much of an inconvenience, I think the other should be aware of the situation and given the chance for a little relaxation and fun after all the silliness surrounding... surrounding Hallowe'en.

[identity profile] citydragon.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 11:20 pm (UTC)(link)
The other Turks already know my birthdate, not to worry.

Hopefully nothing else will go wrong between now and then.

[identity profile] librariansheart.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 11:26 pm (UTC)(link)
That's only about half the people from your world, though, I note. What restaurant will you go to? I assume Rufus will go with you?

Mmm, yes, I agree.

[identity profile] citydragon.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 11:32 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, Aeris does too.

I haven't decided yet - but yes, Rufus is coming.

[identity profile] librariansheart.livejournal.com 2009-11-04 11:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Good. She would definitely want to be a part of it. She's very close to you.

I'm sure you'll have a good time. You haven't really had a chance to have a more relaxed conversation together in quite a while, I suspect.

[identity profile] livingheretoday.livejournal.com 2009-11-05 08:18 am (UTC)(link)
Eh? What happened?

[identity profile] citydragon.livejournal.com 2009-11-05 08:45 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, right, I never did get around to explaining, did I. To make a long story rather short - Reno and a 9mm handgun happened, to my right knee. Recovery has been...slow.

(ooc: he's been limping around on crutches the whole time, but I will handwave that they haven't really had a chance to talk with everything happening XD)

[identity profile] livingheretoday.livejournal.com 2009-11-05 08:50 am (UTC)(link)
Ouch... Yeah.

Was it, uh. On purpose?

(ooc: Ah, yes. Sorry, I'm still trying to catch back up with things.)

[identity profile] citydragon.livejournal.com 2009-11-05 08:55 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, though I don't really fault him - like I said, it's a long story. Finally got the cast off today.

(ooc: It's cool! This is the aftermath of a plot from the end of September (http://community.livejournal.com/cityofdesai/51312.html), so it's kind of far back anyway)

[identity profile] livingheretoday.livejournal.com 2009-11-05 09:09 am (UTC)(link)
Guess I won't have to break his face in, then.

But wow, that's great news! How does it feel to be a free man?

[identity profile] citydragon.livejournal.com 2009-11-05 09:19 am (UTC)(link)
He didn't come out of much better off, but the offer is appreciated.

Stiff, mostly. But I'm happy I can drive again now, even if it's still a few weeks until everything or more or less back to normal.

[identity profile] livingheretoday.livejournal.com 2009-11-05 04:55 pm (UTC)(link)
No doubt, man. I bet he'll think twice before doing it again.

I miss driving.

[identity profile] citydragon.livejournal.com 2009-11-05 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
I didn't realize how much I missed it until I couldn't. Getting injured while Midgar was still standing was one thing - you never had to leave the Tower if you didn't want to. Here...not so much.

It should be fine if you want the borrow the car here, though - we don't have an extra set of keys, but you can use mine. I trust you not to trash it.

[identity profile] livingheretoday.livejournal.com 2009-11-06 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
Yes! You can count on me!

Oh man this is so awesome.

Speaking of birthday presents, I might have an idea of what to get you.

Oh, really? Well, I won't ask and ruin the surprise.

Re: [locked to Aeris]

[identity profile] slum-flower.livejournal.com 2009-11-06 08:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, it'll definitely be a surprise.
